I love having my name mentioned when Narsrim complains, I get such warm fuzzy feelings inside! Complaints do tend to get noticed, but I really don't understand why you think I have some club always backing me - I post my opinion, and then they posts theirs, stop being so paranoid. It just makes you look that much more silly. I also look forward to the sudden drop in whinage, if you are actually leaving the forums. I've never seen one person complain SO much about every skill not theirs, just because several people complain about something you do have and it gets altered because of an oversight. If spores are your beef, I'd say get over it.
There are lots of things to fix still in the game, and though it doesn't exactly make the rest of us *happy* that it was overlooked so long, we are at least glad these things do get fixed. Be glad it took so long, you got to use it to your advantage - just like the very long time it took to fix totems, too. You seem to overlook these useful gifts fairly quickly.
Spores were an almost perfect get-out-free card when paired with vitae. It only took one move to use them, instead of two for hermit (in case of Aeon used), they went over a monolith (and Hermit is stopped by that, AND a person being at the location you want to run to), are ridiculously easy to obtain, and ANYONE can use, without having to learn a skill, (unlike Hermit, or Ghost) and while waiting to get balance back after using them (If there is a balance cost), you can't get smacked around with skills to hurt you, when you can't fight back. (Ghost)
Making them not work over monoliths is perfectly reasonable. As per your tarot complaints, I laid out rational arguements for catacombs, in my personal opinion, as well.
As for a Divine making a jab at you, I'd certainly hope that isn't the reason you are leaving the forums. I'd expect more fire in you than that.

I would like to clarify that I didn't start whining on this forum.

Indeed. I was refering more to how nearly every thread you start can be paraphrased as "This is bugged! Fix it!" Often times such observations are actually misunderstood intentional designs, not really bugs. But more specifically, it does not make sense for me to spend all my time chasing down things for one player, particularly when often times those things are not really bugs. That is not productive for me. I try channel my energies where it is productive.
